Michelin Guide
"Many of the attractive rooms overlook a peaceful garden."
Concierge
"Still run by the family that opened it in 1910, this "elegant property very much like a private English home" is adjacent to Buckingham Palace."
Fodor's
"With Buckingham Palace just around the corner, this hotel, built in 1910 and now run by third-generation Gorings, has always been a favorite among discreet VIPs."

Rough Guide
"A fittingly happening spot in this über-hip neighbourhood, with modern but warm public spaces – all exposed brick and burnished metal – and comfy boutique rooms."
Concierge
"For those who thrive on Hoxton's galleries, garment wholesalers, hip clubs, and swank bar-restos... this is a second home."

Avoid the high tourist months of June and July.

Time Out
"Famous for its low rates (including some publicity-garnering £1-a-night rooms), the Hoxton deserves credit for many other things."

DK Eyewitness
"Hoxton has been one of London’s trendiest areas in the last few years, and it fittingly has the city’s hippest hotel, with small but inventively styled rooms with plenty of technology."
